Learn to play Mahjong at Waldo County YMCA, Belfast. A committed group is looking for new players to join on Tuesdays. If you don't know how to play they will teach you. Free to all; you do not have to be a YMCA member to join in this game, thanks to a benefactor. Mahjong originated in China. It is commonly played by four players. Similar to the Western card game rummy, mahjong is a game of skill, strategy and calculation and involves a degree of chance. The game is played with a set of 144 tiles based on Chinese characters and symbols, although some regional variations use a different number of tiles.
